I ran into the same thing on Unixware 2.1.2 using the native C compiler.
 My solotion, which I posted on this list awhile back was as follows:

Here's a semi-brain-dead patch to the Makefile that will make samba
compile on UnixWare 2.1.2.  Perhaps someone could come up with something
more reasonable that's also portable.  Not beimg much of a Makefile
hacker myself, I'm happy to have something that simply works for me.
Probably I could avoid all this by just using gcc and GNU make, but I
don't have them installed (yet).

I also got some warnings about arguments mismatched to function
prototypes, but I haven't looked into that yet.

Hope this is of some use to somebody.
